• 11 Nov 2019

Victory in Parma, a successful FOSROC Super6 debut for a couple of Warriors and a new broadcast deal - catch up with what's been going on with our latest Weekend Update.

Five tries, five points

It was a second successive bonus-point win for the Warriors on Saturday afternoon, as they backed up their half-century against the Southern Kings with a 31-7 victory over Zebre in Parma.

George Horne grabbed a brace of tries on a autumnal afternoon in Northern Italy, with Adam Hastings, Ratu Tagive and Nick Frisby also crossing the whitewash.
